My VIN is ZGULDUB08HM000027
My engine number is 012712

I'm in Austin, TX. Where do I find the production date? Is it hidden under the wiring on the headstock?
 
Got it! First NEW bike ever...I normally buy pre-depreciated bikes but I couldn't wait for this one. Got some plans for some bitchin mods.

OK ok not a lot of mods yet I just picked it up. MOD 1 = Wheel swap for the cast wheels so I don't have to polish chrome OR worry about tubes! And they look super bitchin so theres that :rock:

Great list of options!
I re-ordered them in terms of value.

• Ohlins front end
• Brembo brake upgrades
• full performance exhaust/fueling solutions
• 820cc big bore

That said... the 820 cc upgrade is absolutely fabulous!
Do 'em all!

My friend and I went for a ride on Angeles Crest Highway last Thanksgiving weekend.
He rented Todd's V7 III R with the aforementioned modifications (and more!).
Amazing bike!

I am new to Moto Guzzi and picked up a new 2017 V7 III Special about a week ago. The VIN is ZGULDUA05HM000178. It was manufactured June 2017.

I am getting use to this style of bike again. Only have around 150 miles so far, The ride is fun and totally different from my other bikes (Sport Touring stuff). I definitely will want some suspension upgrades in a while. I tried emailing info at guzzitech a few weeks ago to ask about figuring out the spring rates that would work best for me. I know the standard springs in kits like from Matris (FM108KE) would not be the proper rate. I need a weight range of 210-240 pounds. I am planning to ride casually and commute.

I also plan to get the ECU remap. I don't want to have to deal with lean running issues like pinging (from what I've read here).

I hope to have a good experience with the bike. Like any forum for a specific type of vehicle, I see a lot of threads on issues people encountered. It make me a little hesitant but will just have to hope for the best and enjoy the bike.

Ohlins front end??

Recommended only from imagining how good these would be. ;)

But also based on how much of an improvement the suspension upgrades on my bike made:
I personally have the Matris V7 F15K Full Fork Cartridge Kit on my V7R (V7R I) paired with K-Tech PB Shocks.

The excellent people at Glendale ProItalia hooked me up with the last 17' V7III Special in Nero in Southern California.
Just added a fender eliminator and awaiting for the Guzzitech ECU and Megs :)
